Whoever this "John" Donaldson character is, he's pretty good.
As the Toronto Blue Jays were set to take on the Oakland Athletics on Friday night, the theme of the day was Josh Donaldson's return to the Coliseum to play his former team.
Unfortunately, the home team - Donaldson's former club, no less - spelled his name wrong on the press box lineup card.

In three career games against Oakland, Donaldson is batting .417/.533/.750 with one homer and one double.
By some chance, there was a John Donaldson who played six seasons for Oakland from 1966 to 1974. He wasn't very good, though, batting a career .238/.313/.295 with just four homers.
